Over the past several months, I’ve seen Texas resale sellers making notable adjustments as the housing market momentum has softened. Since late Q2, conditions have shifted more in favor of buyers—inventory of resale homes (always a key source of competition for our homebuilders) has reached its highest point, offering buyers more choices and putting additional pressure on sellers of existing homes. The increased competition isn’t coming from new construction; it’s the swelling number of resale listings that’s reshaping the landscape. Sellers are responding by making more concessions—whether in pricing or terms—to stay competitive as homes spend longer on the market. For those considering selling, this means adaptability and a strategic approach matter more than ever. As someone who’s been guiding clients through Texas market cycles since 2006—and with a background in real estate investment—I know how important it is to read these shifts and position your property effectively. The key takeaway right now: rising resale supply and greater flexibility from sellers are changing the competitive dynamics between existing homes and new builds. Navigating these conditions with insight and preparation can make all the difference.
